Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE The most prevalent non-amnestic cognitive manifestations in participants in the DIAN-OBS cohort were those typical of mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease, including visual agnosia (55·1%, 95% CI 45·7-64·6), aphasia (57·9%, 48·6-67·3), and behavioural changes (61·7%, 51·5-70·0). 27777020 2016

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE Leptin, once established as a biomarker, could enhance the understanding of late-onset AD risk over the life course, as well as the clinical progression of prodromal state to manifested AD. 26279362 2015
CUI: C0002395
Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE These results suggest that leptin levels are intact, but leptin signalling is impaired in AD. 25453257 2015

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE We also discuss relevant issues such as the role of leptin, insulin and renin-angiotensin signaling in the brain and the possible role of Wnt signaling in both MS and AD. 25084549 2014

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE To determine if measures of adipokines and other blood lipids differentiate between normal controls and persons with Alzheimer's disease (AD), we examined levels of leptin, adiponectin, total cholesterol, high density lipoproteins (HDL), calculated low density lipoproteins (LDL), triglycerides and apolipoprotein E allele status in 148 early AD subjects and 198 normal controls. 22232009 2012

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE Our study implicates ER stress as the mechanistic link in the 27-OHC-induced negative regulation of leptin, a hormone that has potential therapeutic effects in AD by reducing Aβ and phosphorylated tau accumulation. 21983012 2012

Disease: Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's Disease
0.600 Biomarker disease BEFREE Leptin, an adipose-derived hormone, promotes neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus, but the way in which this process occurs in the AD brain is still unknown. 21335656 2011
